Atheist logic: “Morality is an order. Ethics come from within. F–k Morality.”
Christian response…
Morality is provided mankind at conception in the womb by our Creator who has ensured His edicts are etched upon our heart…
1) …to protect the human species from self-destruction in unrestrained narcissism…
2) …to ensure that judgment in Eternity manifests with equity and due process.
God’s law is written upon our heart at conception and even if a man or woman never glances at God’s words via the Scriptures, they intuitively know God’s righteous decrees upon their life and they will be “without excuse” when they stand in the Judgment in Eternity.
It is man in his narcissism, atheism, nihilism, naturalism and aberrant lust that relativizes morality and makes himself a god and ultimately serves Satan in moral relativism culminating in death in sin and death in Hell (Romans 8:24). Without Jesus Christ as Lord to mediate your sin, there is only hopelessness and futility in both Time and Eternity (Matthew 16:26).
